Tire iron ID ?
« on: July 15, 2013, 08:16:13 PM »
I was wondering if any one recognizes this as being from a particular make car or truck ?
It is 17" long , 7/8 or 13/16" opening. It's a little worn.
This also came with some Jeep pieces from the 40's.
Thanks for any help

Thanks Bus ! I don't know how you found it , lots of experience I guess.
I didn't expect it to be that old.
The knowledge on here is amazing.
